Pahk Eco-Friendly Vegan JungleVine® Tote Bag

The Pahk style is the original, undyed JungleVine® bag. This vintage style mimics the original bags that the Khmu artisans have made for themselves for thousands of years.

How are Pahk JungleVine® Tote Bags Made?

Indigenous Khmu artisans gather JungleVine® (Pueraria phaseoloides) from the forests around their villages, strip the pulp from the fibers, spin them by hand and tie them into bags. JungleVine® grows without cultivation, irrigation, or chemicals. It improves the soil where it grows and purifies the air, making it beneficial to the planet at large. Nature Bags are the most eco-friendly bags on Earth. Pahk bags feature undyed JungleVine® fiber in natural rich earth tones.

Pahk bags, unlike most other Nature Bags, come in a broader range between fine weave and coarse weave. Finer weaves look delicate but are extremely strong. JungleVine® fiber, whether spun fine or coarse by Nature Bag artisans, is remarkably durable and stretchy.

*Our model Justine Renee in the pink sweater has a Large, Shoulder-Strap Pahk. Our model Ana in the blue dress and the pink/gray floral dress has a Medium, Shoulder-Strap Pahk. The Pahk at the beach with the bananas is Extra Large, Shoulder Strap.

The bag's size adds to the drop length, so suitable crossbody lengths vary based on the bag's size. For example, an 88 cm strap works well for crossbody on an XL bag, but it is too short for crossbody on a M bag. See strap lengths illustrated.
